I'd endorse that whole-heartedly; most unfortunately, followers of the prophet hate non-Muslims even more than they hate one another.

What's a good Muslim got to do when he's got a hankerin' for some killin' and there ain't a Christian to be found?

Didn’t the US fight a war (and win it) and, then, return the country to its citizens? I guess they aren’t so peaceful. It makes you wonder about expending so many American lives and so much treasury so these camel monkeys can just continue killing each other.
